The tharch of Surthay was a region of Thay north of the Thayan Plateau, just beyond the First Escarpment. It served as a strong, military bulwark against the forces of nearby Rashemen, as well as the launching point for invasions into the cold, enigmatic lands of northeast Faerûn.[1]
Notable Locations[]
- Surthay: Originally built as a fortress to guard against the forces of Rashemen, the city of Surthay was a stark expression of Thay's social classes. The Mulan nobles lived in isolated mansions in eastern part of Surthay, well removed from the filth,[2] poverty and crime that was rampant throughout the fisherman's city.[3]
Geographical Features[]
- Lake Mulsantir:
- Surmarsh: A dark and fetid swamp, the Surmarsh was infested with all manner of creatures such as otyughs, ropers, lizardfolk and even black dragons. It was a favored region among Thayan trophy hunters.[4]
- River Thay: This vital waterway was heavy with traffic from the lakeside city of Eltabbar.[5]
